To be fair it on my list of things to do. Go and have a walk round or fish the day to get a few times and see if I can chat to anyone about it.
It's only about 15 mins from my house. Used to walk past it when I lived down there but wasn't really fishing at the time.

Thread: £200 ISH to spend on alarms

I ended up picking up the sonik sks2. Not had a run on them yet but took them out for a fish. Seems like they will do everything I want and was a bit cheaper than the mini microns in angling direct so went with them.
So far I'm happy but if I get any issues once I have had them for a while I will report back.

I had never seen these before. They look pretty good and UK made and rechargable is a plus for me.
Could probably stretch the budget. Especially with 5 year warranty. Well at least according to YouTube videos.
They are on the list.

I saw these.
A mate has some other fox alarms and loves them and says no problem so assume even the lower end of the range are good.
I'll put them on the list.
It may end up being a big list lol

Hey guys. Looking for a bit of input as there are so many options out there.
If you had about £200 to spend on alarms. Set of 3 with receiver what would you be buying.
No brand loyalty with me so open to most.
Want something reliable and preferably with drop back indication.
Either that or I could buy a second hand delkim txi plus to make mine a 3 rod setup and then buy a new 2 rod setup for the boy.
Cheers

As far as I can tell, anything in Kent with big fish is always expensive.
I'm not in a position this year but been looking around for next year for me and my 8year old to have somewhere other than club lakes to go.
So far it's mega waiting lists and 1500 quid to get on anything that interests me.
Admittedly that's just looking on Google.
On the subject of embryo I heard they were interested in a few lakes over lydd way. Loads of pits round there. Don't know if it's the ones that you mentioned though.

Cheers mate.
It looks and sounds just what I'm looking for to be fair. I want the dividers so I can get it set up as I ideally don't want everything moving about in there a d not everything in separate bags inside.
Glad it's stood up to a bit of abuse as I'd be buying second hand.
eBay has a few. Prices are a bit higher than Facebook market place but there are none near me so if getting posted at least eBay has some buyer protection.
Cheers

Didn't get down my club water as planned but had a social day out on a day ticket.Thinking it would be a bit easier.
Saw loadss of fish showing but couldn't get them to bite. Either on the zigs of bottom.
My mate had a couple of pike out on deadbait so at least I saw something on the bank.
My 2025 blank continues. Hopefully not for long tho!
